Tapirapé
The Tapirapé indigenous people were one of the few tribes that survived the Portuguese and French conquest of Brazil in 1500 and the subsequent colonization of the country, keeping with little changes most of their culture and customs. Stationed deep into the Amazon forest, they didn't appear to have had direct contact with Europeans until around 1910, and even then that contact was sporadic until the 1950’s.
